Quorum-Sensing Synchronization of Synthetic Toggle Switches: A Design Based on Monotone Dynamical Systems Theory
Fig 7
Symmetry breaking in a (1:1)-mixed population of S toggles.
Panels (A) and (B) show the dependencies of LacI and TetR levels for the G-subpopulation of a (1:1)-population of S toggles, respectively. Blue color-coded plots correspond to all unstable equilibrium solution branches, while green and red color-coded plots correspond to all stable equilibrium solution branches. All blue filled BP-labeled points correspond to d ≈ 1.43. All red filled LP-labeled points correspond to d ≈ 2.07.
